You are right Andy, silly me. I corrected my post to 'Mugho pine'.
Thanks.

Hello Walter,

Great, but to me that pots looks more centred. Perhaps only 5mm in it.
Certainly not "offset" as much as the original post suggested.

I only query it because theres a lot of drinks riding on the result !!
You certainly caused a BIG debate with this one.

I claim my "beers" folks

Hope you had a great show, I hear from David that you and Piers had a display area to yourselves.

Look forward to any more photo's and a report if possible.

Kind Regards,
Ian.

John,

I'll only admit it was somewhere between the two, so guess we can buy one each (or more !)

Now just to set up that meeting


Walter,
I would ask though, did you place the pot visually, using the mass of the total composition as your guide, or was it measured with any intent to be in a specific place on the stand ?

Best Regards,
Ian.

yes, I said slightly OFF center. Ian, I just placed it intuitively. I don't measure anything normally. It just happens.

Here the major part of my special exhibit. I got 25 meters and placed ten big trees.
